Do you feel respect should be earned or just given and taken away?

In your life which ideology do subscribe to? People earning your respect or just giving it and taking it away based on actions?

I feel like people over use that little "respect is earned" shyt. I'll give people respect but it can be lost fast. Like why would I walked around with disrespect for everybody I don't know?

There's respecting someone as a human being that has not done you wrong, and then there's holding somebody with high regard.

The second part is earned, the first part is given off top, and that person has to do something to me to lose that respect.

Some of it is semantics, tho. People will just say it's another word, but that's nitpicking.
